Life in South Miami moves with a certain rhythm, breezy afternoons under palm trees, weekend strolls through The Shops at Sunset Place, and vibrant evenings with family and friends. But in a heartbeat, that rhythm can shift.
Maybe it was a distracted driver on US-1. Or a slip and fall at your favorite grocery store. Or a workplace injury that left you in pain and out of work. Whatever the circumstance, one thing is clear: your life has changed. And now, you’re left wondering what comes next.
If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you don’t have to figure it out alone. At Kogan & DiSalvo, our South Miami personal injury lawyers are here to help you regain control and get the compensation you deserve.
When an accident occurs, your first priority is recovery. But very quickly, reality sets in: hospital bills start arriving, insurance adjusters begin calling, and lost wages strain your household budget. Suddenly, you’re not just healing, you’re fighting a system that often seems designed to confuse and overwhelm.
That’s where we come in.
Our team understands the local legal landscape. We know how Miami-Dade County courts operate. We know the insurers, the defense attorneys, and most importantly, we know how to win.
From the moment you call us, you’ll feel the difference. We listen. We guide. And we act with urgency, strategy, and compassion.

Take Rosa, for example. A retired schoolteacher living near Coral Way, Rosa was walking her dog when an uneven sidewalk sent her tumbling. A fractured wrist and months of physical therapy followed. The city denied responsibility. The insurance company offered a pittance.
But Rosa didn’t settle and neither did we.
We dug in. Investigated the sidewalk’s maintenance records. Interviewed neighbors. Presented a case so compelling, the insurer reversed course and offered a fair settlement, one that helped Rosa recover not just physically, but financially.
Every case is different, but our commitment is the same: to fight for people like Rosa. People like you.

How long do I have to file a claim? In Florida, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is now two years following legislative changes in 2023. Florida Statute § 95.11(4)(a) outlines this timeline.
What if I was partly at fault? Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you are more than 50% responsible, you may be barred from recovering damages. Learn more about comparative fault here.
What’s my case worth? Every case is different. We calculate compensation based on medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term effects. View our case results to see how we’ve helped others.
Accidents can feel personal—and they are. But they’re also surprisingly common. According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), Miami-Dade County saw over 63,000 traffic crashes in 2023 alone, with thousands resulting in injuries.
These numbers reflect real people, families disrupted, lives changed. If you’re one of them, know that legal support can make a meaningful difference.
